Scouter Bob McIntyre inspected the Scouts and dues were collected. The troop then left for Western Foundry Co. Ltd., where the foreman, Lee Grove, took the boys on a tour of the plant. They saw the blast furnace which is fired by coke, Pig iron and scrap metal are put into the cupola and melted into cast iron. Mr. Grove showed the large ladles used for carry- ing the hot metal to the moulds and the castings that are mould- ed for various parts of furnaces and stoves. In the machine section they saw the grinding, sanding and drilling operations, which must be done before assembly. The Scouts had a very inter- esting trip and hope to visit the Foundry at some future date, to see the moulding operation. The Wolf patrol has 20 points, Cougars 19, Buffaloes 16 and Stags 13.

Expected That Mill Rate Will Remain Same GODERICH—Huron County Council assesmbles Thursday forenoon, for a one -day session at which all committees will report. These have been re- duced from 12 to nine, and a number of matters which claim- ed attention at the March ses- sion last year are out of the way. Recommended appointment of E.C. Fisher, mayor of God- erich, as emergency measures co-ordinator for the county, will be dealt with. Mr. Fisher, if his appointment is confirmed, will outline his program at the June session. Most important business on Thursday will be adoption of the budget. The mill rate of 14 — six general, eight for roads -- is likely to be the same, it was learned at the county building, President E. G. Hall, of the University of Western Ontario, made a plea at the January ses- sion for assistance in the finan- cial campaign now under way, but indications are for only the usual grant of $2, 500 for bur- saries. Flu has not laid low any of the county councillors, so far as Clerk -treasurer John Berry has heard. An optimist is a husband who keeps the motor running while waiting for his wife.

The Ontario Safety League sug- gests a birthday present that has far greater value than might ap- pear on the surface — a course of driving instruction by areput- able commercial instructor. The League also recom- mends that the lessons should be extended well past the point where the student has learned enough to pass his licence ex- amination. Parents should not teach their children how to drive — they are rarely quali- fied. The best way to learn to drive is through high school driver education, or the com- parable course given by Pro Drivers Clubs. But if these are not available, competent pro- fessional instruction is the next best thing. It costs money, but probably saves far more than it costs, in accidents avoided. It may also avoid serious injury, or even death, for some human being. Died OAKLEY, ELVIN ROY, 41, of Wroxeter, at Wingham and District hospital, Monday. Born Medont Twp.

President of History Club By Rosalyn Murray A young man from Bluevale is the president of the history Club at The University of West- ern Ontario this year. The Clio Club, named for the Greek Muse of History, is a natural interest for Ian Mundell, of R, R. 1, Bluevale, since he is a fourth year student in Honors History. He grew up on his father's farm and attended Wingham District High School. This spring he will graduate from Western and hopes to eater the Canadian Foreign Service. Students of history benefit from the program which the Clio Club offers. Speakers, debates, panel discussions and forums help them to broaden their knowledge through con- tact with experts in many fields In the past year the members have heard speeches on such diverse topics as the history of forests in Canada, archeology as a career, the effect of the French revolution on Russia, the development of religious music and religious philoso- phies which have affected his- tory. The speeches usually spark discussions during the coffee time after the meeting and this exchange of opinions helps the students with their studies. It also fosters an "esprit de corps" among students of his- tory. The meetings and social events of the year, especially the annual banquet, are ideal places for students and profes- sors to meet outside the formal atmosphere of the classroom. This liaison between staff and students is probably the most valuable result of the club's activities, since it provides a time for individual discussion of problems and increases the harmony in the classroom.
